In Search of Self.......& Friends

Still enjoying our week in the sun.  This isn't the best shot, but it'll do.  The only place to put my camera was at the end of the "bar" and it was directly into the sun.  But it was a great little fish shanty with some of the best clams I've had!  They were so sweet!

Today was another grueling day of reading on the beach.  
This is my "In Search of Self" shot for week 8.
This morning we went to breakfast on the next island up.  The ONE time I did not lug my camera with me was the time I really needed it!  We ate breakfast outside & the pelicans were diving all over out in front of us.  Within minutes the schools of dolphins showed up - I mean oodles of them.
They were fishing..........and then they started jumping.   OUT.OF.THE.WATER. jumping!  I was so mad at myself, but we did enjoy the show as they continued on for quite a while.
This afternoon while reading on the beach, I heard a smacking sound out on the water.  The gulf was very calm earlier today & I thought it was just a pelican diving.  I heard it again & looked out to see a stingray flying!  Yes, they "fly".  He jumped out of the water again, dove in & about 10 feet further down he came "flying" up out of the water again to  then land with a "smack" on the water & dive back down.
Have I told you lately how much I'm enjoying myself?
This attitude adjustment therapy is the best!
